Loading Bay Dock Bumper
Loading bay dock bumpers are heavy-duty rubber protection components installed on loading docks and warehouse bays. They absorb impact from reversing trucks and trailers, helping protect vehicles, dock levellers, building walls and loading-bay structures.
Unlike marine docking fenders, these bumpers are intended primarily for road vehicles and warehouse loading facilities.
